The vKVM (Video Redirection) viewer will not start if the user starts a Browser or AutoLogin session and
manually browses to the Video Redirection (non-Java Web Start) in the iRMC browser UI. The user should
instead use the JWS launcher for video redirection.
HP iLO 2
The iLO 2 does not support use of the single or double quotation marks in login passwords. Avoid use of
quotation marks in a password definition.
The HP iLO 2 Virtual Media applet fails when launched using the VGA console of the Avocent® Universal
Management Gateway appliance. Please use the remote Web interface for these operations.
HP iLO 3
Single quotation mark characters are not permitted in username and passwords entered in the SP browser
UI for the iLO 3.
The indicator blink control should not be enabled in the appliance Web interface as the iLO3 does not
support this function.
HP iLO 4
Single quotation mark characters are not permitted in username and passwords entered in the SP Browser
UI for the iLO 4.
The indicator blink control should not be enabled in the appliance Web interface as the iLO4 does not
support this function.
The HP iLO4 Service Processor appears to have a limitation where the vKVM applet is not launched when
clicking the Java launcher buttons after logging into the Service Processor directly using the Firefox
browser. This function works correctly when the iLO4 is directly accessed using Internet Explorer and
Chrome browsers, and when the SPAccess vKVM launch in the Avocent® Universal Management
Gateway appliance Web interface.
The HP iLO3 and iLO4 Service Processors can connect virtual media sessions when the client is the
Avocent® Universal Management Gateway appliance local port or a PC running a Linux operating system
using these steps:
a. Select Java IRC within the Remote Console section.
b. Enter the physical USB drive name in the Local Image File textbox in the iLO3/4 UI. The drive
name will be similar to “/dev/sdc1”, where the sdc1 would be replaced with the actual drive name
associated with the USB slot.
SPAccess vKVM sessions using the HP iLO4 Java vKVM viewer are failing. Please use the ActiveX
vKVM viewer with the Internet Explorer browser through remote Web interface access for correct
operation.
HP BladeSystem and Blades
The HP Integrity blade product line is not supported as these blades use a different management interface
than the ProLiant blades.
The HP BladeSystem firmware supported by the Avocent® Universal Management Gateway appliance
does not support the Chrome browser. Use Firefox or IE browsers for SP Access sessions to the
BladeSystem.
Occasionally, all HP iLO blades within a HP BladeSystem chassis are not discovered as standalone targets
when adding these blades as new targets. Please attempt to discover these blades again to complete the
add target operation.
